Relationship Coaching for Individuals

As a therapist and Relationship Coach for over 20 years I can confidently say I have seen the patterns in struggles to find a great relationship and equally, the struggles of how to navigate it once you have one.

The struggles of finding a good relationship tend to be primarily about us and not our bad luck in choosing.  What are our patterns, what do we put up with and how well do we screen potential candidates to get what we deserve? Relationship Coaching for Individuals allows you to talk one on one for as many sessions as you like to discuss either current struggles in your existing relationship or for those needing a little guidance in how to quickly weed out poor choices as they are currently searching for a great relationship.

Also, for those wanting more understanding and potential change in your current patterns of choosing partners I offer my Shortcut’s Coaching Package.  Here you can gain understanding of why you choose who you do, cut yourself some slack for previous choices made and begin to get the relationship you deserve.  If you want to find the relationship that is right for you then click below for more information.

Relationship Coaching for Couples

Many couples experience the same struggles and dynamics that are keeping them from achieving a fully successful, happy relationship.  It all boils down to communication.  Are you speaking up?  Is your partner speaking up?  Are you allowing yourselves to see each other?  Couples have universal struggles regarding feeling heard & validated, feeling that fair compromise is taking place, feeling misunderstood and not feeling appreciated for the differences they each bring to the relationship. 

When you engage in Relationship Coaching for Couples, you learn to stop the “reactive behavior” that shuts down communication and learn to finally hear and understand each other in a nonjudgmental and loving way.  If feel you are struggling in your current relationship, then click below for further information.

Talk Therapy

I could speak in a bunch of complicated vernaculars relating to different modalities and approaches to therapy or I can just put it in plain language to think about. Talk Therapy involves learning to understand yourself and making the changes in your life that are either keeping you stuck or causing you to act out in dysfunctional ways that are detrimental to moving forward. Talk Therapy is appropriate for issues both big and small, as well as serious or seemingly non-serious. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable talking to the therapist you choose. If you don’t, then you should move on and try out another.  If you feel stuck and need direction, if you are tired of acting in ways that aren’t good for you or if you are struggling with any issue and need help then click below for further information.

Testimonials

Christine was so helpful to me. She taught me how to figure out what I wanted from a person that I wanted to be in a relationship with. She taught me how to ask for what I wanted and not to put up with things I was not ok with. I finally started speaking up for myself. She helped me with romantic relationships, but also relationships with family members and friends.
Thanks Christine!!

Before I began seeing Christine, my relationship with my spouse was such that I didn’t speak up enough for myself. She has given me the tools to advocate for what I want and need and my spouse is treating me much better as a result…

Christine is very easy to talk with and down to earth with practical advice. She’s a wonderful counselor and I’m very fortunate to have found her.

Feeling relatable, safe and heard are 3 reasons why I knew Christine was the therapist for me. From the moment I walked in to her office, I knew I was safe. What I appreciated most is that Christine never let me off the hook. She offered perspectives that I couldn’t see. Identifying those perspectives and creating strategies to work through them set me up for success. Life is good and I feel like me again.
